Voting closing in the Irish Blog Awards

Grandad January 22nd, 2007

Now you may have noticed that blob on the site of my Blog.

That is a link to the Irish Blog Awards nominations.

In case you are not aware, nominations close next Friday [the 26th January], so get your votes in NOW.

Now I’m not for a moment suggesting that you should vote for this humble effort. That would be very unfair of me. And very unfair to all the other bloggers out there. Some of them have even put in quite a bit of effort.

On the other hand, if I don’t get nominated, I might be forced to continue blogging until next year. Now you wouldn’t want that would you?

Some very nice people have written to me saying that they are voting for me as Best Newcomer which is very flattering. I suppose my blog in new, but I’m certainly not.

So I’m giving you due warning now. You have only four days left. Click on the link below and cast your vote. And even non-Irish people can vote [though I doubt I'd get one from George W]. Not to mention all of you who come here looking for pornography…….

Bin Laden to run for Presidency

Grandad January 22nd, 2007

In a surprise move last night, Osama Bin Laden announced his intention to run in the forthcoming American Presidential race.

“I will beat International Terrorism. The Homeland will be secure.” he announced.

He went on to explain that if he were president, he would not be attacking his own country and thus would remove the threat.

“Furthermore, no other terrorist group would dare mess with me” he said.

The announcement has been widely acclaimed by the people of America.

“He can’t be any worse that that last guy” said one.

The NRA in America welcomed the announcement.

“It is about time all decent Americans carried guns openly. This will promote open warfare in the streets. We are very pleased”

One group who expressed concern was the Plastic Surgeons of America.

“We are concerned that there may be a drop off in trade in cosmetic surgery if all women will have to wear the Burqa”

Osama announced he would immediately withdraw all American troops from overseas and would move them to Guantanamo Bay.

Asked what party he would be running for, he said that all parties, festivities, music, dancing and any other form of enjoyment would be banned, so it was irrelevant.

There has been a surprising rush of support for Mr. Bin Laden.

In a survey carried out by CNN, the following results were collated -

  • 98% of people said anything was better than Bush
  • 79% of men said they were looking forward to women being treated as inferiors
  • 15% of women said they were looking forward to women being treated as inferiors
  • 84% of women said they were tired of the obsession with female appearance
  • 100% of Muslims said it was about time
  • 63% of people said he was better looking than Hilary Clinton
  • 99% of men feared a woman in the White House
  • 78% of Backwoods Militia said they were going to volunteer as suicide bombers
